Subject: [PATCH] Fix the HGA framebuffer driver

Resurrected some old hardware and fixed up the hgafb driver to work again. Only
tested with fbcon, since most fbdev-based software appears to only support
12bpp and up. It does not appear that this driver has worked for at least the
entire 2.6.x series, perhaps since 2002.

Signed-off-by: Brent Cook <busterb@...il.com>

Hercules graphics hardware uses packed pixels horizontally, but rows are not
linear. In other words, the pixels are not packed vertically. This means that
custom imageblit, fillrect and copyarea need to be written specific to the
hardware.

 * Removed the experimental acceleration option, since it is required for the
   hardware to work.
 * Fixed imageblit to work with fb_image's wider than 8 pixels.
 * Updated configuration text (HGA hardware is from 1984)
